Hello,
The wallpaper carousal in my unrooted Mi5 doesn't seem to work. The lock screen shows only the default, offline 8 wallpapers.
I also tried clearing the cache and data of the carousal app (also tried a restart after that). Any clue about how to fix this?
Which launcher do you use?

It's the default launcher provided by MiUi.
Btw, it's a bit stupid that I am answering my own question, but the issue was resolved when I got an OTA two days ago The version I have now is 8.0.5.0

Good to know it works now
I was asking about the launcher because when you have custom launcher set as default, Wallpaper Carousel cannot access wallpapers and symptoms are just how you described. Xiaomi says that this is "known error"
Below feedback i wrote to Xiaomi
Changing wallpaper on Lockscreen is unique feature of Xiaomi but it's not working. I google lot on solution, still it is not working. Many users reported that the wallpaper is not changing on lockscreen. I tried both on default launcher and lightning launcher still not working. Did many troubleshooting like installed old versions, Autostart, no restrictions in battery saving, allowing all permissions etc still not working. My device is Redmi Note 4 rooted with Android 7.0 with MiUi 9.6.3.0.
Hi guys
I am reaching out to you guys because I haven't found an answer in the world wide web and probably some others would have the same problem as I have.
I recently installed KLWP app to customize my wallpaper. Problem that I am facing is that with no used Launcher (Nova, Apex, Evie) I can make my wallpaper scroll. Option is always on and I also checked that I have the same amount of pages in KLWP and my home screen. Not even with the standard launcher of P20 it's possible.
Does someone of you have a potential solution for me?
Thanks a lot for your help and best regards from Zurich
No solution, but the same problem on a P20 (not Pro). Tried to set a picture as wallpaper in Nova Launcher, but scrolling doesn't work. I also tried to force scrolling in the nova settings, but this crashes Nova.

I have a potential solution for you. I have had exactly the same problems like, as it seems, a lot of other Huawei users and nothing seemed to work. I then installed a bunch of different launchers and I finally got it working with Action Launcher. It worked out of the box, even tho if I made changes within the action launcher the KLWP became static again. I switched betwwen stock launcher and Action Launcher until I had my KLWP set up with all the settings I needed. You have to play around with that a little I guess, but I really think it will work for you.
The Launcher is this one.
Kind regards from Germany!
has there been any solution or work around for this? as i have a pretty cool setup i used for my previous sony xperia z2 and want to use it form y p20 pro but wall paper scrolling is integeral to it.
When you choose wallpaper click on the scrollable icon so it turns blue, your wallpaper is now scrollable when you apply it
I did the scrollable option in the standard launcher and it worked but I'm more interested in getting it to work using nova launcher. That's where everything seems to break down on me. Using standard everything works the way I want, just to complete the setup, I need to fully customize my app looks and shortcuts.
Same issue with Honor 10. Force scroll option on Nova Prime crashes the launcher.
Do you have the ability to select live wallpapers through the normal stock launcher?
As I've noticed on stock launcher the only live wallpapers you can see are the ones through Huawei's Theme App and no option to use external live wallpapers, so I wonder if this is the problem. I've emailed them and just waiting for a response as they state you should click on 'more' and then get option for live wallpapers in top right screen of which I don't, it's only the huawei theme app
Wallpaper scrolling works for me using Nova. I can also select external live wallpapers using Huawei's themes app.
If I use certain wallpaper apps to apply the wallpaper directly from their app, it doesn't work. But I found that once applied, I can then use nova wallpaper selector to reselect the same wallpaper from its 'history' options and this forces the wallpaper to now scroll.

I was on 156 and now on Android Pie EMUI 9. Scrolling still works for me. Stock theme.
On my side, i try to disable the wallpaper scrolling because when i set a static "portrait" picture, it zoom the picture and it's a mess >_< (nova launcher set in static wallpaper)

So you are on a totally different model/firmware as not all P20 Pro's are the same, it doesn't work on the CLT29-8.1.0.131 (C782)
Update: according to Huawei 3rd Party Live Wallpapers are not supported.
In response, please note that Google live wallpaper, KLWP or any other non Huawei themed live wallpaper are not supported by the device

I've not gotten Nova Launcher Pro to work. As others have stated, if I select Scroll Wallpaper to On, nothing happens. Just a static wallpaper. If I choose forced, it crashes.
The Microsoft Launcher works fine however. Just set a regular wallpaper to scrollable in the Huawei Wallpaper app, then you can apply KLWP. This has worked for me at least. The drawback of the Microsoft Launcher is that it doesn't have the workaround for the 5 second delay which is a pain. I've reported the issue to Microsoft a few times, both on the Google Group and Twitter, but so far, nothing.
SOLUTION :_Wallpaper scrolling in klwp
Its simple.... If u have 3 screen klwp live wallpaper jst save it from klwp and come to home screen(hope you have nova) then hold the screen untill it arrives to add screens.
Add 3 blank screens and feel the magic of klwp.
U must also enable wallpaper scrolling in nova settings
Hey guys,
Absolutely loving this phone since I bought it. One problem I've found is that I can't get live wallpapers to work properly. I've tried using Nova Launcher, Action Launcher and the stock launcher, but I can't get live wallpapers to scroll properly. I tend to use KLWP a lot, but it seems stuck between multiple pages and won't scroll.
When using Nova Launcher, Force Scrolling doesn't help at all. I've tried setting the wallpaper as a static image, to a live wallpaper, back to the live wallpaper in every combination but I can't get any success.
I've tried installing the stock LiveWallpaperPicker.apk to no success.
I've tried enabling magnetic sensors in KLWP, but didn't notice any change.
Has anyone had a similar problem or found a solution?
I have tries everything and I cant seem to get wallpaper scrolling working with KLWP and nova launcher. Anyone know a solution to this.
i posted a solution in another thread after getting feedback by kustom as I had similar issues and huawei weren't that helpful and just said it was not supported
Use Stock Launcher
Choose wallpaper
Click the scrollable icon in bottom right so it turns blue
Apply wallpaper
Change to Nova Launcher
Select wallpaper and it will be scrollable across screens and will allow you to use KLWP properly
I’ve just bought a honor play, upgraded to EMUI pie 9
I would like to CHANGE the deafult LAUNCHER in honor play,
with something like pixel 3 launcher with badges/DOTS,
I really hate having all the apps being spread around the desktop, without any drawer to be opened to fit them all...
BUT
1) I tried rootless Launcher.
The EMUI system blocks the apps, saying it is behaving incorrectly and must be removed (it is not even possible to open it)
2) tried ADW+ ADW plug in.
The dots are NOT shown. I try to open the plugin to configure the apps with dots, but it doesn’t open.
4) tried Poco launcher
The dots are NOT shown
5) tried Nova launcher,
I’m doubting to by the pro version (with dots) fearing that Nova too will not be capable of using dots as all the others.
Does anyone of you succeeded in installing another launcher with DOTS/badges ?
Which one and how ??
I read that Huawei/honor blocked for Chinese market the possibility to change the launcher.
Did they now lock also the EU smartphones ?
In this situation the smartphone seem so limited....
Thanks in advance
Dots and badges etc work fine in Nova premium.
Nova premium works just fine
Nova Launcher Prime works fine for me as well.
Another plus for Nova Prime here. Using the dots myself. Think you need the Tesla Unread add on downloaded for it to work too.

Hi all,
I puchased the Nova Pro, and found badge working (with count number)
Sideloading googleNow apk, the google home page (right swipe) works too.
BUT
I found that TABS are NOT WORKING in main drawer.
Did I do something wrong, or is a Honor EMUI bug ?
Created the tabs, enabled the tab bar, but no tab is displayed.

Should I open a new thread for this problem ?

You have made folders, but do you have tabs?
